<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Thanks Kathy,<br>
<br>
Originally, I had concerns about this, similar to what Michele was expressing on the call.
<br>
<br>
In talking with our compliance team, it sounds like they have, for a new or unknown requester that's a third party, attempted to verify the relationship between them and the rights holder.
<br>
<br>
The below language seems reasonable to me, and I wouldn't think it would generate anything that doesn't already exist. Having it available may even make requests more efficient.<br>

allegation and bind the rights holder to the limitations on the revealed data. For rights holders, that agency will be reflected in a document -- an agency agreement (or equivalent). That's all we're asking for -- the ability to see it if there are questions.
We circulated some longer language earlier, but have been reviewing it. Building on Val's language, it may now boil down to a few additional words. They are below (in italics) and attached in the Reveal Policy (using the text by Mary for our meeting last Tues):<br>
